Getting to Know the Continuum of Care

Entering into caregiving...preparing your home...involving the entire family...investigating community resources..there are many pieces to the puzzle of providing care for a loved one. iCaregiver.org helps you put it all together.

Caregivers report difficulty finding time for one's self (35%), managing stress (29%), and balancing work / family responsibilities (29%) (NAC 2004).

The typical caregiver is a 46 year old woman with some college experience and provides more than 20 hours of care each week to her mother.
